More Details

Summary:

Seeking to reunite with her estranged family, Zeynep and her American husband Stephen travel from New York City to a small coastal town in Turkey. Together, along with her divorced parents and younger sister, they embark on a week-long sailing trip meant to be a last chance for Zeynep's father, Yusuf, a dissident journalist being prosecuted by the government, to reconnect with his daughters before prison. Once on open water, with blue skies and wind in their sails, hope springs eternal -- yet things may not be as they seem. As they await the result of Yusuf's appeal, tensions begin to rise, and when a young local man further disrupts the delicate family dynamics the trip takes a very unexpected turn.
